¹In David je zopet zbral vse izbrano moštvo v Izraelu, trideset tisoč.

¹And David gathered again every chosen one in Israel, thirty thousand,

²In vstane David ter gre z vsem ljudstvom, kar ga je bilo pri njem, iz Baale Judove, da prinese odondod skrinjo Božjo, ob kateri se kliče Ime, ime GOSPODA nad vojskami, ki stoluje nad kerubi.

²and David riseth and goeth, and all the people who [are] with him, from Baale-Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God, whose name hath been called — the name of Jehovah of Hosts, inhabiting the cherubs — upon it.

³In postavili so skrinjo Božjo na nov voz in jo odnesli iz Abinadabove hiše, ki je bila na griču. Uza in Ahio, sinova Abinadabova, sta vodila novi voz.

³And they cause the ark of God to ride on a new cart, and lift it up from the house of Abinadab, which [is] in the height, and Uzzah and Ahio sons of Abinadab are leading the new cart;

⁴In ko so ga peljali s skrinjo Božjo iz hiše Abinadabove na griču, je šel Ahio pred skrinjo;

⁴and they lift it up from the house of Abinadab, which [is] in the height, with the ark of God, and Ahio is going before the ark,

⁵a David in ves rod Izraelov je igral pred GOSPODOM na vsakovrstna godala iz cipresovine in na harfe in na strune s petjem in na bobne in zvončke in cimbale.

⁵and David and all the house of Israel are playing before Jehovah, with all kinds of [instruments] of fir-wood, even with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cornets, and with cymbals.

⁶In ko so prišli h gumnu Nakonovemu, je Uza iztegnil roko po skrinji Božji in jo pridržal, zakaj volom se je izpoddrsnilo.

⁶And they come unto the threshing-floor of Nachon, and Uzzah putteth forth [his hand] unto the ark of God, and layeth hold on it, for they released the oxen;

⁷In vname se jeza GOSPODOVA zoper Uza, in Bog ga udari ondi za njegov pregrešek; in je umrl tam pri skrinji Božji.

⁷and the anger of Jehovah burneth against Uzzah, and God smiteth him there for the error, and he dieth there by the ark of God.

⁸In David je bil žalosten, ker je bil GOSPOD naredil pretrg z Uzom, in imenoval je ta kraj Perez Uza [T. j. pretrg Uza.], do današnjega dne.

⁸And it is displeasing to David, because that Jehovah hath broken forth a breach upon Uzzah, and [one] calleth that place Perez-Uzzah, unto this day;

⁹In David se zboji GOSPODA tisti dan, in reče: Kako naj pride skrinja GOSPODOVA k meni?

⁹and David feareth Jehovah on that day, and saith, `How doth the ark of Jehovah come in unto me?`

¹⁰In David ni hotel nesti skrinje GOSPODOVE k sebi, v mesto Davidovo, temuč jo je dal odnesti v hišo Obededoma Gatovca.

¹⁰And David hath not been willing to turn aside unto himself the ark of Jehovah, to the city of David, and David turneth it aside to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite,

¹¹In ostala je skrinja GOSPODOVA v hiši Obededoma Gatovca tri mesece; in GOSPOD je blagoslovil Obededoma in vso hišo njegovo.

¹¹and the ark of Jehovah doth inhabit the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months, and Jehovah blesseth Obed-Edom and all his house.

¹²In povedali so kralju Davidu, rekoč: GOSPOD je blagoslovil hišo Obededomovo in vse, kar je njegovo, zaradi skrinje Božje. David pa gre in z veseljem prenese skrinjo Božjo iz hiše Obededomove gori v mesto Davidovo.

¹²And it is declared to king David, saying, `Jehovah hath blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that he hath, because of the ark of God;` and David goeth and bringeth up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the city of David with joy.

¹³In kolikorkrat so prestopili nosilci skrinje GOSPODOVE šest korakov, je daroval vola in pitanca.

¹³And it cometh to pass, when those bearing the ark of Jehovah have stepped six steps, that he sacrificeth an ox and a fatling.

¹⁴In David je plesal z vso močjo pred GOSPODOM in bil je opasan s platnenim naramnikom.

¹⁴And David is dancing with all strength before Jehovah, and David is girded with a linen ephod,

¹⁵Tako je prenesel David in vsa hiša Izraelova skrinjo GOSPODOVO gori z radostnim petjem in glasom trombe.

¹⁵and David and all the house of Israel are bringing up the ark of Jehovah with shouting, and with the voice of a trumpet,

¹⁶In ko je prišla skrinja GOSPODOVA v mesto Davidovo, je gledala Mihala, hči Savlova, skozi okno in je videla kralja Davida, da poskakuje in pleše pred GOSPODOM, in ga je zaničevala v srcu svojem.

¹⁶and it hath come to pass, the ark of Jehovah hath come in to the city of David, and Michal daughter of Saul, hath looked through the window, and seeth king David moving and dancing before Jehovah, and despiseth him in her heart.

¹⁷Ko so pa prinesli skrinjo GOSPODOVO noter, jo postavijo na nje mesto sredi šatora, ki ga je bil David razpel zanjo. In David je daroval žgalne in mirovne daritve pred GOSPODOM.

¹⁷And they bring in the ark of Jehovah, and set it up in its place, in the midst of the tent which David hath spread out for it, and David causeth to ascend burnt-offerings before Jehovah, and peace-offerings.

¹⁸In ko je David končal darovanje žgalščin in mirovnih žrtev, je blagoslovil ljudstvo v imenu GOSPODA nad vojskami

¹⁸And David finisheth from causing to ascend the burnt-offering, and the peace-offerings, and blesseth the people in the name of Jehovah of Hosts,

¹⁹in je podelil vsemu ljudstvu, vsej množici Izraelovi, možem in ženam, vsakemu hlebček kruha in kos mesa in kepo suhega grozdja. In ljudstvo se je razšlo, vsakdo v hišo svojo.

¹⁹and he apportioneth to all the people, to all the multitude of Israel, from man even unto woman, to each, one cake of bread, and one eshpar, and one ashisha, and all the people go, each to his house.

²⁰Potem se David vrne, da blagoslovi hišo svojo. In Mihala, hči Savlova, mu pride naproti in reče: Kako častit je danes bil kralj Izraelov, ki se je danes razodeval pred deklami hlapcev svojih, kakor se nesramno razodevajo lahkomiselneži!

²⁰And David turneth back to bless his house, and Michal daughter of Saul goeth out to meet David, and saith, `How honourable to-day was the king of Israel, who was uncovered to-day before the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain ones is openly uncovered!`

²¹David pa reče Mihali: Igral sem pred GOSPODOM, ki me je izvolil mimo očeta tvojega in mimo vse hiše njegove, da me postavi za vojvodo ljudstvu GOSPODOVEMU, Izraelu, in še bom igral pred GOSPODOM.

²¹And David saith unto Michal, `— Before Jehovah, who fixed on me above thy father, and above all his house, to appoint me leader over the people of Jehovah, and over Israel, — yea, I played before Jehovah;

²²In še bolj se hočem ponižati in nizek biti v svojih očeh, a pri deklah, ki si o njih govorila, si s tem pridobim čast!In Mihala, hči Savlova, ni dobila zaroda do dne smrti svoje.

²²and I have been more vile than this, and have been low in mine eyes, and with the handmaids whom thou hast spoken of, with them I am honoured.`

²³In Mihala, hči Savlova, ni dobila zaroda do dne smrti svoje.

²³As to Michal daughter of Saul, she had no child till the day of her death.
